Outdoor Recreation Code of Ethics

I will:

• Consider myself an invited guest of the landowner, and conduct myself so that I will be welcome in the future.
• Recognize the rights and privileges of others sharing the same lands and waters.
• Understand habits and habitats of the species, the regulations, and the fragile nature of the environment.
• Treat game with profound respect, engaging only in fair chase and seeking primarily a priceless outdoor experience.
• Avoid hunting practices that degrade the safety and quality of the sport.
• Avoid irresponsible use of alcohol and other drugs during outdoor recreation.
• Exercise care when dealing with fire and smoking materials.
• Support fish and game laws and harvest quotas so that future generations can have the same outdoor experiences we now enjoy.
